This is a beautiful campground. Make sure you get the right directions before you come here because there is a 12 foot bridge nearby and 3 campers hit it in the last week and took out their a/c units and satellites. GPS will take you the wrong way!!! Take right exit and DO NOT GO THROUGH THE SMALL TOWN. Nice park, Beautiful, lots of sites, with benches and fire pits. Most Sites a little uneven and LOTS OF TREES. Do not come in after Dark because maneuvering RV into site can be difficult. Good Wi-Fi, and beautiful park. I would recommend. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is primarily a spacious, well-maintained mobile home community with some spaces converted for RVs. Very quiet. THERE ARE NO SHOWER/RESTROOMS! Sites are very spacious with concrete patios, either under large trees or some in the open for satellite access. Staff is very friendly. Rate is based on monthly rate. Just minutes from Stone Mountain park, and great rate for an extended stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed in Loop F which was a wonderful loop. Each site had a deck and a gas grill. Most of the sites throughout the park are shaded. However, several of the sites in the campground are not level. The infrastructure of the park needs work. The roads need repaving and several of the sites need leveling. Staff was friendly and the pool was great. If you can visit in advance and drive through the park and make a list of sites you would like to try to reserve, you would probably be better off than trying to reserve sight unseen. Don't miss the Laser Show-it is wonderful! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We've been here many times before, and it's still a great vacation. It does look like overall tourism is down at SMP (like everywhere else I guess) but the campground is good and the park is great. We stayed in the premium sites ("Trail F") around the pool and office, and the wooden deck eating area with the stainless steel gas grill was GREAT! Don't be surprised if some of the amenities of the park you like are reduced: the shuttles or water taxi services don't run quite as often, but the park is still great and the lasershow is spectacular again this year!!! GREAT place for kids, no "rides" but many physical challenges like ropes courses, rock climbing walls, and play areas. Really gets them moving, and they loved it... We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is not the place to go if you're looking for space between neighbors or to get back to nature. Most sites were right on top of one another, with little or no vegetation as a buffer. Our site (and others around us) were eroded and essentially dirt lots perched on the side of a hill. Our fire ring was built on the remains of a busted up asphalt parking pad. On the plus side, the lake and amenities at the park are nice, the bathrooms were clean and spacious, and the pool and playground area was nice too. Friendly staff. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

This is a nice, woodsy park. Our site was a little tough to handle due to the narrow roads, but we managed to get 'er in. If you want to spend a few more bucks, they have some really nice sites on the "upper level" of the park (we were down the hill). Each of the high-end sites has a wood deck with a stainless-steel gas grill; this area also has a new restroom/shower facility. We would stay there again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We were not particularly pleased with this park. For the price that you pay--and we did upgrade to one of the new sites with the deck and gas grill--we didn't feel that the park was managed very well. It is a big park. You could ask the same question to different people and get totally different answers. The transportation around the facility is not good. We enjoyed visiting the mountain. We did not appreciate kids running wildly through our campsite and peering in our windows. WIFI worked fine at our site. The site was very dirty when we checked in. The "brand new" gas grill had not been cleaned and there were beer cans all over the deck. We will not be returning to this campground, nor will I recommend it. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Absolutely beautiful park very scenic and lots of shaded areas. April is cool in Georgia so you will need a jacket but the park cannot do anything about that. The people working there were very nice and helpful. I suggest getting a site with a sewer because the roads are tight and it takes sometime to get into the spots. Bring lots of cribbing for your trailer most sites are uneven. Although it is tight there were buses in there so don't be scared. Highly recommend this park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This campground is in the park so the first thing you'll do when you get there is pay your $8 parking fee which you won't have to pay again. We were in site 342 which was very hard to get parked in. We had to back in blindsided up a hill, (but managed to do it without a fight! :) Once we got the camper parked we found that the site was very unlevel. Once we got in and settled though I was very pleased. Some of the sites don't have much of a yard at all, but ours was pretty big with a great view of the lake and the mountain. We walked the campground to see what the rest of it was like and when we return we will definitely try to get into Loop F which is close to the office. Those sites are all level and big enough for our camper. They're also right next to the pool and playground which is a plus when you have kids. We had a great time at the park and were able to come back to the campsite for lunch with no problems. Very relaxing and peaceful environment. I also liked that it had that good ole outdoorsey camping feeling to it. Not like a resort but close enough to all the attractions. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

They are updating many things and have added golf cart and boat rentals, however, you can only use the golf carts in the campground. Staff terrific as usual. It was a very busy time during spring break. We always stay in Loop F right in front of the store which seems the nicest because of the view and decks with gas grills and the pool and playground and open grass area in the circle. The spots are pretty close together. My only complaint was the laundry facilities. One of the 3 laundry locations was closed and not noted anywhere but when you get there, it is locked. The other two all had one dryer out of order and more washers than dryers anyway so it took hours, literally, to do 2 loads of laundry as with the dryers that were working took two 45 minute cycles to dry. The campground was close to capacity though. Next time I will find somewhere outside the gates than the hassle of trying to use what is there, however, they are upgrading many things so could be better soon. Overall this is a great campground if you have children. Lots and lots of kids there to play with and the other activiites around the mountain plus hiking and exploring. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a huge FAMILY oriented park located inside the Stone Mountain Park. We stayed two nights in a level, full hookup, lakeside, PULL-IN site that turned to mud in the rain. We are an older couple. This park had kids everywhere: scooters, bikes, skateboards, soccer balls, you name it. Way to busy for us. Worse still, at night, everybody had camp fires. Between the inversion layer and the propensity to burn wet wood, the air was so thick with smoke I was choking the whole two days we stayed there. Generally, a park in this good a condition with these nice facilities and amenities would rate higher with us. However, we thought this place sucked. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is one of our regular favorite campgrounds. When we just want to camp for the weekend, Stone Mountain is our spot. We live less than an hour away and it's our camping home away from home. Like other campgrounds, it does have some sites that are better than the other. We stayed in the 330's and they can be a tight squeeze, but we just reserved the spot two days before we got here. We were able to rent a golf cart for $35/night, which apparently was a weekend special because it was normally $75 per night. I would strongly suggest staying around 413 (pull-through) or 409, 410 or if possible (and it can be tough) or favorite sites are either in the loop in front of the office/camp store or on a site off of the lake. There are always a ton of things to do at Stone Mountain, from golf, to the park mountain hike, a train goes around the park and the mountain village with all sorts of activities. If you plan to visit often, like we do you are better off becoming Mountain members that gets you discounts on the campground and pays for itself if you come at least twice. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a great place to stay when visiting in the area -- when you won't be there much. Sites are too close together to spend much time outside your rig. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring. Sites range from absolutely flat to very lumpy or sloped. Some sites appear to be paved with concrete, others with crushed gravel. On a busy Friday, there was only one person checking people in -- not enough for the crowd coming in. Even in February, reservations would be wise for the weekend to get the area you want. There are many family-oriented activities in the park and packages are offered. There is a nice woodsy feel, and I'm sure it's even better when the trees have leaves on them. However, there may be a problem with pine pitch dropping in warmer weather. The $35 rate is for a non-premium full hook-up site. There is free WiFi but it slowed down and ground to a halt as more users got on. Did not check out the restrooms and showers although they are conveniently located in each loop. Will stay here again when visiting in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Stayed over Christmas. We arrived late after the office closed. The site I registered for didn't seem to match up at the actual site as they were building new sites. We pulled in the one we thought was our site but the hook-ups were on the wrong side. The water didn't work. Next day we were told to go to a new site. It was down hill and it rained most of the week and the Georgia red mud slid down the hill and accumulated around our site. We brought our own golf cart and had fun driving around. It was a very nice campground and everyone was nice. The only downside is that check-in is unorganized and the sites don't match up on the map they give you or that you register for, some of the sites seem to have electric on the wrong side and satellite absolutely does not work because of the dense trees. If you can be patient with the check-in process, it's a nice campground. I'll visit again sometime. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We paid $8.00 to enter park and then $35.00 for our campsite. Directed to a site that was very unlevel, picnic table about 30 degrees off level. Drove back to the office thinking that we might need 4 wheel drive to get through some of the unmaintained roads. We were given a premium sire on the circle in front of the office with a wooden deck. This would have been a nice if it was level and not a mud hole. We just stayed overnight. Park needs upgrades to get it back to what it was years ago. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We live in SC and never see snow. We decided to camp at Stone Mountain and go to their Snow Mountain to let our kids play. The campground is very narrow and the sites are very unlevel. They offer a package deal with passes to Snow Mountain, firewood, and a Smores kit. There was a fire ban that they forgot to tell us about and there were no campfires allowed. If I had known that, I would have camped some place else. The camp store closes at all times. It was closed at 4:45 on a Saturday. Snow Mountain is in the same park and it was a disappointment. The snow was hard packed ice. They give you times to slide down the hill but you will spend most of it waiting in line. The food is ridiculously overpriced. I spent $40 on three hamburgers that were the size of a kid's meal. In fact the kid's meal burgers were the same size as adults. We were very disappointed and probably won't be back. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Stone Mountain and the area around it is beautiful. However, campground has gotten old and dated. The only sites to choose here are the ones right in front of the office and I will go one step further the ones that back up to the lake. I say the lake, since these sites were the most level and had best drainage. Forget the sites not in front of the office, which includes pull-thrus. They are the most unlevel sites I have ever seen. I tried parking on two different pull thrus and could not get level. Roads in this area are very narrow, your mud flap will drag, etc. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Paid Passport America rate but you also have to pay $8 to get into the park. Campground is old and the interior roads full of holes and bumps. a lot of the sites are small and weird shapes for larger RVs. Staff is helpful but some are not very RV literate. Lots to do in the park and very woodsy but you may have trouble with sat reception. Park Wi-Fi is expensive and difficult to get unless you are close to the office. This is about your only choice of a park if you want to be in the north Atlanta area We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Park can't be beat for location in and around Atlanta. The pickings are very few. Campground is showing wear and tear and needs some improvements. Roads are in HORRIBLE condition. Sites are not very level. It took every last block before I could get even close to level. This is our second stay here and had 3 different sites; all where a chore to get level. Wi-Fi was just bad. It didn't work 90% of the time we were there. Seems like they would reset it, and it worked for a couple of hours. We camped directly behind one of the Wi-Fi antennas. Camp wood was way over priced and wet. You're better off getting firewood elsewhere. There was some sort of goop on our site and I had to spend 20 minutes cleaning it off. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We have camped here two years in a row. The sites are larger and much shadier and more scenic than most RV parks. The sites are not level and there are many different elevations, but our elevation gave us a view of the lake even though we were three sites away. Some maintenance work is needed: the door to the ladies's room was in bad shape, the shower curtain needed to be replaced, and the electrical box on our site was askew. Many bugs on the floor indicated that the restroom area had not been swept in a while. But on the whole we enjoyed our stay. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We thought the price was a tad steep considering the size of the site. We did enjoy our stay and would love to return. Our particular site is surely not one to stay in with children due to the drop off. The front office was more than happy to swap our site. Great customer service. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We were in Loop F right across from the children's playground and pool and a few doors down from bath facilities. This is a great campground and excellent for those with children. We have young boys and could easily peek out the windows at them playing on the playground. My 4 year old had a blast riding his bike around. Everyone there was incredibly friendly and the store was decently stocked. Stone Mountain activities were also a lot of fun and we did purchase a special that included tickets for the attractions but liked it so much they allowed us to get credit towards an annual pass. The campsites are a bit small but in Loop F all come with a deck that has a table and a beautiful, expensive gas grill, with the gas bottle included. In fact, their service was so great there they had a recall on their old BBQs and took them away one day and so we went and asked why and the very next day we got the new one... they were putting them together as fast as they could. They also have church services on Sundays in the pavilion and have coffee and donuts every morning that we were there, out for the campers. They collect the garbage in front of your spot daily and have trash cans all around the park. The entire park was spotless including the baths and showers and the surroundings were beautiful and while they don't have cable and because there are trees everywhere those with satellite really can't get service, our TV antenna worked great. They also have a big screen at the open pavilion. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We camped three days in Loop F and were pleased with the site. Clean and well lighted shower house. Friendly people, well stocked camp store with all the essentials. Wireless available at lodge area. Very good CG for families with children. The Sky Hike attraction and tram to the top of the mountain are worth the cost of the Adventure Pass. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We really enjoyed the park. Lots of activities for the kids (bingo, ice cream making) and continental breakfast at the pavillion in the mornings. I do have to agree with other reviews that the roads to the sites are not the best but the site was roomy. The sites for larger RV are much better than the sites for smaller units. Being that it was the summer all the park acitivities were open including the water taxi, even though only during the weekend. Unlike in the winter, which the park is only open for the Snow Mountain event, the office / store is open all day. I have Verizon and had no problem getting bars. I have DirecTV and also was able to get cable. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Huge sites. Convenient to park. We didn't get much out of the park (my kids like more action). Gas barbecues and wooden decks for each camper (at least near the pool where we were). The sites were recently spruced up but were still kind of barren. You backed up to a row of trees but each rig stuck out without any shade. The bathrooms from 5P to 7/A the next day had not been cleaned, but were not terrible. Highly recommend the light show and fireworks. Free, nightly at the main park. Kids loved it.

It is a nice park but when I made my reservation I told them I had a motor home. When I got there I found that I was assigned to a small, back-in plot that was so steep that my refrigerator would not work and my wife complained that walking up hill to get from the bedroom to the kitchen was not the way she wanted to get her exercise. The next morning I was able to get moved to another location. It was another back-in location but was nice and level. I hooked up and tried to drain my gray water tank. That's when I found out that the sewer connection to my site was clogged. I reported it immediately and was told that it would be taken care of. Each of the 3 days that I was at the site I reported this problem. Each day I was assured that it would be taken care of. It still wasn't fixed when we pulled out. The activities are great, and the people are friendly. The sites are a bit small and I was very glad that I didn't have anything bigger than 37'. It appears that infrastructure is not getting the maintenance it needs. We would visit this park again but not during a peak period and would be certain to be able to leave if adequate facilities were not provided. We camped here in a Motorhome.

There is a beautiful lake and lots to do in this resort setting. We have stayed here before and each time find it is well-maintained. Our site was on a hill and it took all the wood we had to level the trailer. The loop looked across the lake so it was well worth it. We used the boat cruise to go across the lake to dinner and the laser light show. The only disappointment each time is we have not been pleased with the restaurant food. We hiked to the top of Stone Mountain which was great exercise and a beautiful view. The showers and bathrooms were clean. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very nice campground, first time we visited. Would have given it a 10 except the roads in the campground need a little work. The campground is very wooded and the trees are causing the road to buckle in several places. Roads are definitely doable, but do watch and go slow in areas. For the casual bike rider, leave the bicycles at home, the roads are hilly. Campground offered scheduled activities for the kids, but the Stone Mountain Park had so much to do that we didn't have a free minute to get to it all. We recommend this campground and visiting the Stone Mountain Park. We'll be visiting again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Location, location, location! They do have full hook-ups but it is a very busy place. They sell an attraction ticket that is worth the price if you are staying for at least two days. The convenience is worth the price of the campground and they do have a water taxi that will take you over to the marina for the laser show. That seems to be the best way to get to the show because of the parking. It's just a short walk "up" and all downhill after the show! You should get to the laser show at least an hour before to stake your spot! This is a Passport American campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is one of our favs; well run, clean, and the "perks" are great. We stay here and use the free "water taxi" or Marriott shuttle bus over to the park, no toad needed! The pool is cool and clean. There is a nice little store and planned activities for kids, too. They let us pitch a kids tent next to the MH at no extra charge- up to 6 persons per site. Some of the spots are not level so just bring some extra levelers or boards. Even the worst are not sloped too bad - and the ones that are have a great view of the lake. The premium spaces around the pool (Row F) are the best (wood patios!) but go fast so make a reservation. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is the 3rd time we've camped here and its getting better all the time, The loop sites in back of the Country store have new wood Patio's and Gas Grills. The employees that I saw were well over 40 years of age, and actually took care of every thing and were very nice. Much better then the Teenagers that worked there the last time.

This is the regular rate but we also got one night at half price with Passport America. This is a pretty park and depending on the site you have, some are much better than others based on previous reviews. The staff was very friendly and the camp store is very complete. We chose a site with only w/e and were assigned a pull thru in the P loop. There was a very steep downhill grade to get to that loop. We were not on the lake side, but had a nice view of the mountain. The sites were not level and our friends traveling with us had to move to a different site because they could not get level. The first night we were the only two in that loop which was very nice. On Friday night it filled up more. There are laundry facilities spread out in some of the bath facilities. The one I used was OK but not great. The roads in and out of the loops had some major potholes in them. We were concerned about getting out with the motorhome but actually it was rougher in the truck than in the coach. There is a one time fee to enter Stone Mountain. We could not get a Wi-Fi signal in our site because of all the trees but there was a good one in front of the office. I would stay here again but I would choose a full hookup site the next time.

We really enjoyed this park. I can see why some folks may have given a lower score on this park as there are several different sections. We stayed in the "F Loop" which is the nicest section (more expense but worth it). The sites in the F Loop all have new wooden decks with railings and a new high end - 3 burner gas grill. Water pressure is a bit high at 70psi but water tasted pretty good. Electric good. I was told free Wi-Fi is available at the pavilion (didn't try it), but a fee based Wi-Fi is available at your site. Sites close to the pavilion can get free Wi-Fi. Staff was VERY friendly and helpful. Super clean baths. The Stone Mountain park is very nice. I walked around and checked out the other sections and they are not level and some have drop-off etc. If you have a small rig and want to ruff it, then go for it. We will return for sure.

Quite nice overall, but as another reviewer said, some of the sites are not level, and because many sites are carved out of a slope, you have to be extra careful blocking your trailer, to make certain it doesn't end up in the lake. Nice and quiet in the evenings. The park is maybe 30-40 minutes from downtown Atlanta. WiFi is not free; I paid $20 for one week of WiFi usage, and then often didn't get a strong enough signal. However, our site was on the outermost edge of the campground, and whenever I absolutely needed Internet I was able to take my laptop to the office/pavilion area, where the signal was very strong.

This is definately a destination resort. You would come here for all the attractions within the park, not just for the campground. This is a wooded campground, so with that comes, no satellite reception, roots making roads unlevel in places, and some tight oampsites. It is mountainous, so some campgrounds are unlevel, ours leveled with the hyro jacks, but many would be more suited foe smaller units. The staff were very helpful, I think they would let you change sites. The bath houses were clean, modern, and well ventilated. I would have gave it a 10 if it had free wi-fi and cable. We loved it and the kids had a great time. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was our first campsite in our new RV. The site was fairly level and the jacks were able to auto level without any wheels off the ground or blinking error lights. The power, water, and sewer was clean and easily accessible. The staff was friendly and we found lots of peace and quiet at our site. I would recommend this to other campers. The only down side of the park is the water taxi/shuttle to Stone Mountain Park only runs on Saturdays, during non peak times. This might be a bummer for people camping here during the week without a tow vehicle. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We camped here in a 37 ft fifth wheel trailer. Very helpful staff. WiFi pay only and very expensive, considering the cost of the site. We were fortunate to arrive when the site was empty after a busy weekend. We were able to choose a site. Many would have been unsuitable for our trailer as most of the pull throughs were on very steep slopes, very uneven and tricky to get into. We chose a back in site which had plenty of room. Very pleasant, well kept campground in a beautiful location around Stone Mountain and Lake. Restrooms were well used, but clean even after a busy weekend. Reservations are absolutely essential at this campground, particularly at weekends and if you wish to reserve a particular site. If this campground had cable TV and free WiFi it would score a 9 or 10. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We had an excellent time at this campground. Full of amenities and fun. My daughter fished at our beautiful site #194 right on the lake. There were lots of families here and the staff was super friendly and helpful. The only drawback was the pavilion across from our site at the Marriott Evergreen Resort had been reserved for an outdoor party that went on until late the night of our arrival. Loud music and a very loud DJ until after 11:30 when the police finally asked them to quiet down. This was beyond the power of the campground though. Be advised that the water taxi that takes you over to the laser light show at the main park is a very unreliable service. If you have the ability to drive yourself to the main park, I would do so. The water taxi shows up whenever and stops for the night, even if there are people still waiting to get back to the campground. Also it is a long walk from where they drop you off to the actual park. There are NO signs directing you back to the taxi from the park. And good luck getting a worker to give you directions. Beyond those two complaints, this was a wonderful family oriented campground with very friendly employees in a beautiful setting. I would, without a doubt, stay at his wonderful family campground again. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

This was like our 4th stay at this campground, not so much because we like it, but because we can visit family in the Atlanta area on the eastern side of the city. It is the most convenient CG for us. The real problem with this CG is; that when people come to visit us at our site, they have to pay $8.00 to get into the park as that is their daily rate to visit. When camping there you get a pass for your own car, but you have to pay the $8.00 to get into the park in your campground. Be careful going into the park, we had about 3 inches on each side of the mirrors navigating the gate. The WiFi appeared to be ok, but we did not use it because it was not free. The park was loaded with kids. If you don't like the sounds of little girls screaming and little boys yelling till about midnight, stay away from the main loop in front of the office, but if you are in a big rig, you might want to put up with the noise and take the nicer, bigger, easier to navigate lots.

I love this park. My wife loves this park. We will be back for sure. The site we had was nice and was close to level. We were close to the pool, but I think I would have rather been close to the lake. The only thing I found that I disliked was the wireless internet. It was not a very strong signal in the spot where we were even though we asked for a spot with wifi. It worked well enough to pay to sign up and then did not work well enough to really use it. I do not hold this against the park though. The bathrooms where very clean as were the showers. The camp host greeted us as we arrived after hours. He was very friendly and helpful. There is a great camp store on property. They also offer donuts under the pavilion in the morning (before 9am.)

Nice park, great location with plenty to do in the park. As others have stated be ready to use extreme measures to level your rig. Loop F is a pretty safe bet for beginners and families with small children. We took a drive around the other loops and would have been concerned for my children's (Ages 10,7,2)safety on some of the sites on the M or N loops. I have never seen big rigs with both back wheels 6 inches off the ground. Granted some of these sites had better views of the lake, but looked to be for the more seasoned folks.

While the staff was friendly, this appears to be an old outdated park at best. Don't forget to tack on the Stone Mountain Park entry fee, that the campground will not tell you about. Yes, you must pay the fee to reach the park. Unless you are lucky, be prepared for a very extremely unlevel site at best. In fact, you may have to bring lots of wood blocks to stack your camper up on. The locals have long since reserved the level sites. Sites are paved, but the pavement has long since broken up into rubble. The sites are not particularly private. The only thing good about this campground is being in the Stone Mountain Recreation area. We would never stay here again. We camped here in a Truck Camper.

This was our second visit, and it was a little better than the first one. We last camped here in the "off" season and one of our biggest complaints was the large number of employees driving everywhere on golf carts. No problems there this time. The sites in general are unlevel, and that needs to be addressed. Our site this time was not overly difficult to level or get into, so no big complaint. Our grill fell apart, as the stand rusted through, so we "borrowed" the one from the site next door. Overall, the park is kept up very well, but it is still very expensive. However, it's convenient to everything and that is what we need when we are there. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Many sites are small (at least they are a tight fit for our 35' fifth wheel). Many sites are not very level. We were able to get level only because the previous camper left behind about 5' of 2 x 10. We needed to raise one side of the unit about 5". Sites do offer a nice view of the lake. Staff was not particularly helpful (not rude -- they just weren't very knowledgeable about the area).

We had a great time. Our site was small with a drop off on two sides. Not much room for the car. We spent most of our time there out in the park, seeing the sights and letting the kids play. We had no neighbors till the last night so it was real quite. If you are going there for the park and it's activities then I would say go and have a great time. If you are going for the campground well it leaves a little to be desired. My site was somewhat level. The site across from us had his tires about 18" off the ground and the hitch was about 6" off the ground. It was scary to watch them go in and out. some sites were very tight and no where near level. I don't know that we will go back any time soon. It was not a bad experience just now that we have been there done that I want to try new places. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

I have stayed here several times. This park campground has great assets and great faults. The campground is WAY overdue for some serious maintenance. It was obviously constructed many years ago and most sites are ill suited for today's bigger campers. Some campsites are very good and others horrible. The camp office staff seems full of employees who assign sites with little knowledge of what campers need to set up their rigs. If they won't make-over the roads and campsites then staff should inventory their sites and redo the reservation system to supply a more tailored assignment to the rig to be camping there. On the positive, it is one of the very few camping sites available near Atlanta and has a lot of wonderful qualities. I don't care for all the 'glitz' but enjoy the trails, woods and lake. If you camp here, it is best to know the campground and make your reservations for a year in advance to get the site you know will work for your rig We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Obviously many people like this campground while others don't. We're part of the others. We made a reservation 2 months in advance because we would be in the area on a weekend and knew it would be crowded. They assign a spot at that time, and since we had no idea what to choose we just took the recommendation of the reservationist. The area is really pretty, mostly heavily wooded and sits right on a lake, but the CG itself just seemed messy. The roads are paved but have lots of holes and uneven surfaces. We stayed in the M Loop, and it was so packed that there were numerous vehicles sticking out in the road making it very difficult to maneuver. People were walking and standing in the street and made no effort to move over to give us room to get by. Some sites are paved, but ours was dirt. It was a bit difficult to back into because it was on a curve and uphill. It was also extremely unlevel, but by moving the motor home around on the spot and using blocks we were finally able to get it adjusted after almost an hour. One couple that walked by told us they had tried to stay in the spot a few weeks earlier and never could get level. We would have asked for another site, but they were full. Also when we were setting up, another motor home pulled up and they said they had been assigned the spot. I explained how long we had had the reservation so he went back to the office for another spot. (When we had arrived the check in line was very long, and only one young lady was working in the office, so I'm sure mistakes were happening.) The restrooms were dirty, and a shower drain was backed up the whole time we were there. We could not get WiFi at our spot. The rest of the stay was not so bad. The view of the lake was nice, and the good news is almost everyone left by Sunday afternoon making it much more peaceful and relaxing. We did enjoy seeing Stone Mountain and all of its attractions. We would stay here again if we could get a better site. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We really enjoyed the Stone Mountain Campground. Even though it was almost completely full, it was very quiet and pleasant. Some of the sites have fairly steep drop-offs (around 4-6 feet) down to the lower sites below, so be careful if you have small children. Luckily, our site was one of the lower ones. Didn't get any satellite TV signal due to the lush tree foliage, but it was a welcome trade-off that isn't worth complaining about. Some of the sites also have concrete pads -- ask for one of those if you can. There's a lot to see and do at the Park itself, especially for the little ones. The two-day pass is definitely worth it. Our stay was made more enjoyable by a couple of great neighbors, whom we met around the fire one of the nights, and the lasershow/fireworks were a big hit with the kids as well. We certainly plan on coming back soon, perhaps for one of the special event weekends later this summer. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We camped here over Easter weekend (2006) and had a great time. We were in site 161 right across from the pool, playground, and sand volleyball lot. The sites in this loop (140-168) are very small and most have little shade, but they all appeared to be pretty level (this was a very level loop, but other loops appeared to be more hilly). One draw back was the steep drop-off on the back of our site. (I did not walk around the campground, so I can't comment on other sites. ) Our site had full hookups and we didn't experience any problem with the sewer. My kids (3, 7, and 10) loved the sand volleyball lot and the large grassy area for playing. Plus, there were lots of other kids for pickup volleyball and kickball games. The bathhouse in this loop was one of the cleanest we've ever seen with large showers that had a seperate area for dressing, etc. Also, the staff were very friendly and helpful. They had an Easter egg hunt for the kids and free coffee/donuts in the morning on the weekend days. There is plenty to do at the Park also....we hiked up the mountain, rode the skylift, rode the train, watched the laser show, went to the 4D theatre, played in the Great Barn and the Treehouse. The only drawback to all the activities is that they are expensive (the campground does have a good deal where you can buy an all inclusive wristband and get two days for the price of one). One word of caution, don't speed in the park. The speed limit in the Park is 30 mph and it is strictly enforced. We saw numerous people pulled over by the Park police. Overall, we had a great experience. The only drawback (and it is entirely dependent on your point of view) is that Stone Mountain Park is in a very city/suburban area (a Super Wal-Mart and Super Target are less then 5 minutes away). It kinda lacks the "getting away" from it all feeling. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Only complaint was there was not any cable TV. Satellite dish would not pick up a signal. Highly recommend purchasing park tickets at the campground. It took our family 2 days anyway to see the Stone Mountain Park. We stayed in Loop L. The sites were a little cramped getting into and out of. Had to ask neighbors to move vehicles in order to park RVs. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Would rate it a 10, but no cable TV. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We really loved Stone Mountain. They have spent alot of time and money making the park a really great tourist stop. Now it is time to work on the campground. Twenty-five years ago it was probably the nicest around. With the rest of the park becoming such a great attraction, it would be nice to see the owners pour some money into the campground. That being said, we enjoyed our stay. We had a blast and will be back again and again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Nice park with lots to do. But, be aware that you need to add $8 to first night for fee to get into park with a vehicle. This is a tourist area so the activities cost $. Unless you just want to walk, ride a bike, etc. The campground sites range from OK to nice. It is a hilly area next to the lake, so some sites may be difficult for a bigger rig. Also, it seemed a bit "messy", with a lot of work going on. It was the off season so maybe it will be better later this spring. One BIG problem. If you get a full hookup site near the lake, be very careful when you dump. There is a problem with the sewer system and it will run out on the ground unless you go really slow. This may be only on the lower sites like where we stayed, but if they charge for it it should work better than it does. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is our 3rd stay at this campground. We need to see our son and family in Atlanta, and there are no other choices. This campground needs to be run by people other than government! This campground needs to be organized and operated by people who have seen a campground, used a campground or operated a campground. Example, the first time there we requested a pull thru site. Well, it was a pull thru, but we were so far out of level we looked ridiculous and it was difficult to get into our camper. The second time, we were closer to the office and the site was somewhat satisfactory. You just did not want to go to the back of the trailer, or you would fall down the cliff to the lake. Having no children with us, that was easy to avoid. This time, having the site map, we called to make a reservation. The person taking the reservation gave us site #144 and that was a good site. We agreed, reserved and got a confirmation. When we arrived, the teenager handling the check in, was also working in the store, which created a huge line of people wanting to just buy something or check-in. Terrible situation. We were not given the site that was confirmed, which was empty. She said, due to our short stay, she could not give us our confirmed site. So they gave us #156! Next to the bathroom, bright lights and the site was so unlevel, it took forever to get situated. One of the employees came and said the site was "crowned up" and you need to find the level in the site. DUH! We can make anything work! To become level, we would have to bring one side of the wheels up about 7". So we jockeyed it around so that we were sideways and somewhat level. The poor guy next to us, actually broke his fifth wheel hitch in his truck, trying to reload his trailer. Most places that are operated by government and managed by teenage help, have absolutely no clue. Campers cost lots of money and do not need to be put in this situation. It is too easy to be in a private campground. This one should be managed by a vendor. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This was our second visit to Stone Mountain State Park and the campground. The park has a lot to offer; however, the campground needs some improvement. During our visit the sewer backed up and over flowed. The campground also has large trees that have large nuts that will pound the top of your RV with the slightest wind or rain. We now have a cracked vent from the relentless droping of these nuts. We will return to the campground but not during the fall when these nuts are beginning to fall from the trees.

While this park is beautiful, it has some serious flaws. For one thing, $40 per night is a bit steep for just electric and water hookups. Our site was very unlevel and took a lot to get our rig setting level. Some of the sites are short and since the site was preassigned to us, it was good that we did not have a big rig. But my biggest problem was with the billing system. Since I booked this reservation months ahead, I was billed on my credit card for three nights (we were there during the Yellow Daisy Festival and all sites are full). When I checked in and paid for the rest of the week, I was charged for the full seven nights. I did not have my credit card statement with me and had no proof that I had already paid for three nights as a deposit and the park office had no record of it. While we were there, I got very ill and had to have an abulance called. The ambulance driver did not know how to get to our site since there was no park personell available to tell them where we were. Then the ambulance driver did not know how to get out of the park and after driving around for 30 minutes was intercepted by a park policeman who lead them out. When I returned home and felt good enough to call them about being billed for three days twice, they were quite reluctant to help me, saying they would call me back. Needless to say, they never did and I never got a credit for the three nights. There were some sites that had 3-4 cars/trucks parked by them and they stuck out in the road as the sites are small. Not once did I see park personell drive around to tell the other campers to move their vehicles out of the lane of traffic inside the camping areas. The laundry rooms were not adequate for the size of the park. This park is pretty, but that is about all I can say about it and it sure isn't worth the money. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I am new to this site and reviewing places where we have camped. 2005 was the first year of camping for our family. We stayed at Stone Mountain Park Campground September 2-5 (Labor Day weekend). We reserved a site well before our visit and the staff member was very kind and full of information. She suggested when we arrive that we ask if there were any cancellations of “better” sites. We did, they did! The young lady suggested we go look at the available sites but said her favorite site was open. After previewing the sites we chose her favorite! The site was clean and close to just about everything. It was so big that we thought a fallen tree was the border of our site but we actually had both sides of the tree. The site was pretty level which is a plus because we are “tenters”! The bathhouse was very nice and very clean. The pool was small but very clean. The continental breakfast at the shelter house was a nice treat we had not seen before. The camp store was at the end of the season but still well stocked. We even got shirts for 50% off! We saved by buying the 3-night site rental with “full access” wristband for 2 adults and 2 kids at the amusement park (around $180). The amusement park was AWESOME! The campground offers a pontoon boat shuttle to the park. We had some great quality family time at the amusement park. All attractions were class acts. The sit down restaurant (the name escapes me) had delicious food at a reasonable price. Ask about the hand tossed rolls! At the end of the day there is a laser/fireworks show that is worth the price of admission by itself. We even got to see American Idol’s Josh Grayson in concert prior to the laser show! To top it off we were close enough to Atlanta to catch our Cincinnati Reds at Turner Field. This would be a must for any baseball fan. Turner Field is a great experience for the kids too! We took the metro rail system to the game and had we left earlier we could have enjoyed Underground Atlanta. Personally, I cannot agree with some of the more critical reviews posted. Maybe I was just lucky? But, by far our best trip so far! We camped here in a Tent.

The campground is very large and the sites are all very different depending on which loop you are on. Some sites are almost level and others are almost impossible for you to get your camper level. Some are very shaded and close to each other where others are more open. Some sites have a very steep dropoff at the rear of the site so if you have young children this could be an issue. The pool, playground and sand volleyball areas are nice. Our site was directly across from the sand and my children enjoyed playing in the sand every day. There were Krispy Kreme donuts every morning under the pavillion which was nice. I did notice that the employees speed through the campground either in golf carts or regular vehicles. Overall, we liked the campground and would camp here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

As previously stated, the park makes up for the sub-par campground. Pluses for the campground were the pool, the camp store, and the water taxi service. Minuses were very uneven sites and rude office help. We were put into a site (318) that was too small for our MH and very uneven. It was also marked as full hookup, but I could never find the sewer. Several others were unsuccessful as well. It looked like the site was washed over from a heavy rain, so it was probably buried and somebody had removed the marker. I had to argue with the lady at the office to get another site. That one (306) fit our MH and was only a little more level than the other. I still had to jack the front end off the ground to get it even close to being level and because of the incline at our door, forget about trying to sit out on chairs. We used the picnic table. It looks like they are switching to a poured concrete picnic table. Most sites had them including ours. They were very uncomfortable to sit on and we saw many sites where one bench was already broken. After walking the grounds we found several other sites that would have been more suitable and noted them for future visits. We enjoyed the park enough to overlook these flaws. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great Family location. Children safe to ride bicycles or fish in lake. Many campsites back up to the lake. Campfires are allowed. Small swimming pool but a water park is in the state park. Campground is located at Stone Mountain State Park. You must get in your vehicle for a five minute ride to most of the attractions. There is a lot to do once in the park. There are too many attractions to list. The laser light show is a must see. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Paved roads and sites, but some pavement in dis-repair. Tree limbs needed trimming when we were there, but they didn't hit our 42' motorhome. Many of the sites were pretty unlevel. Too many trees for good satellite, but there is a row that had a clear view to the south. Staff friendly, but their computer system seemed to make their job slow and difficult. (trying to figure out which sites were available). I had to wait in line everytime I went into the office. Overall we had a great time and will definately go back there.

The sites were crammed close together and offered no privacy. It was also very busy. That being said, there was an abundance of things to do for people of all ages. There are far too many to list in this post. It would be better to visit their website. The bottom line is this: we have a three and thirteen year old. If we were camping with them, we would stay here again. If my husband and I were alone, we would not pick this campground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Beautiful treed campground, with lots of amenities around in the Stone Mountain park. Downside to this park are that the site was not particularly clean (we filled up most of a walmart bag with trash on our site), the sites are uneven, and the inner roads are very tight to navigate with a large coach. There's no real signage telling you where to stop when you drive in, the best thing to do is stop in the turn lane when entering the campground. Overall, the positives outweigh the negatives on this extremely family friendly park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed there Memorial Day weekend 2004. My first impression was that the sites were
close together with very little usable space for the awning, etc... Our site was a narrow pull-through, gravel, and extremely unlevel. The plus side is that it's shaded and has water taxi service available to the other attractions that are available at Stone Mountain Park. After getting settled, we found that there was still enough room to sit around and visit with fellow campers. The staff picked up trash bags at 11:00 each day, which was very convenient. Even with the minuses, we purchased a Mountain Pass seasonal membership and can't wait to go back. This has quickly become one of our favorite places to stay, especially with the children.

We have to give it high marks because campground is located in such a great park with so
many activities. It feels like the woods but you're basically right there in Atlanta area. We don't want to knock it too much because it is quite nice, but some of the rave reviews about camping area were overblown. Bathrooms and showers are not clean -- many bugs, saw one roach, and even had a tree frog actually JUMP into my shower while I was standing there naked with shampoo in my hair. Wild house-type cats roaming and ripping up garbage bags, which staff doesn't pick up too reliably. Staff was pretty lame. Our first site was on Loop M, which we found out stands for "mud." Gravel, washed out, and not level. Roadsides drop off down embankments, so sites are basically built-up mounds sticking out like fingers off the road. Some aren't too pretty because it looks like they used construction debris for fill. Drop-offs can be dangerous for kids, especially ones on bikes. Moved to Loop "L" for a paved site (293 - good one) which made a huge difference even though we lost our lakefront spot. Still had fair view of lake and nice paths to lakeshore. Great pool and playground for kids. Remember--they don't call it Hotlanta for nothing, so be prepared for the heat if you go during summer. We will definitely return, despite those negatives, but not until it is cooler. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Stayed at Stone Mountain this Memorial Day weekend 2003 and the week following. The campground over all is OK. The sites are for the most part un-level, kind of close, and not well kept. The hills are expected but some of the sites in the 300-400 areas are on the side of hills. In the 298-6-4-2, etc. areas you're awing basically opens into the campsite facing yours.a friendly arrangement (you can share campfires). I found the bathhouses to be the dirtiest, I have seen at any park/resort. There are dead and living bugs all over the rooms (on the sinks, counters, toilets, floors etc.), broken showers, broken doors, missing soap dish (so no place to put your soap or shampoo). In one shower stall a broken blue cup with a substance in it, lay on the floor the whole week and was still there when I left. Every morning there is a donut and coffee fireside at 0730-0930 but the staff does not tell you this or that on Sunday there is a real breakfast served at the pavilion. Most of the staff are KIDS some cannot even operate the cash register in the little store, most are somewhat friendly, until you ask a question and then they say " I don't know, they never told me". The staff was not aware that the TRAM at the park DOES NOT RUN after the lazer show. This was a surprise when you stand with a group of small tired children at 10pm and have to walk/care them over a mile to get to the water
taxi to get back to camp. I had asked if the tram runs after the show and the staff had told me yes...not a problem. Also they said that if there was a problem call them. They do not answer the phone at that time of night. Overall the Campground gets a 7 and the park itself gets an 8. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

My wife and I and my little chinese crested stayed here in April 2003 in a travel trailer. We stayed in one of the pull through sites. The sites can be faily uneven and it was very difficult to level up completely. The park was so nice though I did not mind. This is a very family friendly and quiet place to stay. You can find a spot near others or so that you see few folks, it's your choice. Did wish there was cable. The park is growing and there is quite a bit to do.

Park was very good. The normal back in sites were large enough for both my trailer and truck to be set up with room to spare. The sites very uneven, so bring extra matieral to level your equipement. Very nice shade for every site I seen. Playground equipment was in good shape. Campground was laid out very nicely, more than enough room to manuver even the biggest of rigs. Had a sign that stated water pressrue was very high, but this I did not see. I gather they had a problem with the water as they were starting to dig up a coulpe of places to perform repairs while we were pulling out. I assume they were addressing the water issue from the way they were talking just outside our site. I look forward to going back someday. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

unless I hear that there have been major upgrades. We had to repel to get out of the camper. The site was not level.

Excellent location in a great park. Lots of shade, some sites difficult to get into, some on steep grade. Rest rooms and showers appear to be cleaned daily but not thoroughly. We notice an unusual amount of spiders in the restrooms that never seem to be removed. Staff has always been friendly and most accommodating. This is a family favorite for us and the grandkids, climbing the mountain and riding the train are a must, along with the laser show. The park itself has become commerialized and much more expensive for a family than in the past. We return nearly every year. Very

Great park, near interstate, located within SM state park, great for kids and adults. Some of the sites are in rough shape, probably due to tree roots heaving them. Some sites located on a hillside and could be a flood problem or at least wet and muddy little feet. Look around before you pick your site.Would and will go back.! We camped here in a camper.
